STACEY STEPS UP

In this week’s trip to Walford, Stacey takes Lily to school after she refuses to go due to bullying — and arranges for Amy to come over for a sleepover.

A furious Stacey shares her concerns with the school headmaster and is invited to join the parents’ committee that evening to help stamp out the bad behaviour at school.

But Stacey’s appearance at school causes a commotion with a group of pupils who have access to Stacey’s Secret Cam page.

Later, she is mortified by Lily’s revelation and can’t bring herself to face her family. But after some wise words from Martin, she heads to the parents’ committee to face down the judgemental parents and while there Stacey shares some home truths.

Back at home, the tension in the Slater household continues to rise as Jean struggles to come to terms with Stacey’s cam work.

Elsewhere this week, Jay prepares for Lola to come home but Ben is unconvinced that she should be leaving the hospital as he struggles to accept her prognosis.

Nevertheless, Lola arrives home and is greeted by the residents of Walford as they rally around the family for support.

After being previously snubbed by Billy, Sonia shares Reverend Mills’ number with a distressed Jay and encourages him to reach out to her for support for Lola.

At home, Lola becomes very low as her speech becomes more slurred and, as the reality of her prognosis sets in, she refuses to see Janet and William.

Honey also struggles to deal with her complicated emotions towards the situation and later confides her worries with Phil who comes up with a plan to let Janet revise for her GCSES at Peggy’s, away from the upset at home.
